8. C. E.O (dagrin)
if there was ever an artist who defines an era in a short time, then it has to be Dagrin. this young man revolutionized the indigenous rap scene and he owned it till his demise. nature did us great injustice by taking him away so young, cos one can't imagine what he could have become. lyrical Were gave us tracks like ghetto dreams, Kondo, Thank god, and the monstrous Pon pon pon

7. MUSHIN TO MOHITS (wande coal)
in 2009, there was no bigger album than this, if you want a press play album, this is it. no dull moment in this album from the first to the last track Wande gave his all with is sweet voice accompanying each track. from ololufe to Bad, to Taboo, to Kiss your hand, to Sope tie, to bumper to bumper (point of correction vender to bumper) even Jehovah was not left out.

This album gbono feli feli, the koko master, defined himself in this album, 'are you not entertained, pay me my money ' those exact words are what dbanj stands for, entertain and get paid nothing else matters.if u dey craze, no bring craze near him. songs on d album are Kimmon, Suddenly, Igwe, fall in love, gbono feli feli, and many more.

4. GONGO ASO (9ICE)
before nice lost his voice, he was heard by both young and old. even is thick Yoruba fusion didn't stop the spread of his music like his voice has done now lol. Gongo ASO was another press play album. the songs on this album were hits back to back, and in 2008 even dbanj's entertainer couldn't contest with this album. GONGO ASO swept every other album aside and took centre stage with songs like Photocopy, kinda life, Street credibility, Wedding day, Party Rider, and the titled song itself. (egbon chop finish now say e wan release 5albums for one year,na there hin voice catch fire)

3. GET SQUARED (psquare)
with your bizzy body eeehhh. u can't just but drop your hat for these great brothers who over the years have blessed us with awesome and magnificent albums, forget their internal crises and just focus on their music, you will sure be amazed at the work they have done. going through their discography I find it hard to pick just one album cos all their works are Standard (not reekado oo)
in 2005, this album plus it's videos where the standard for measuring quality. songs include Story, Bizzy body, Oga police, Say your love, Omoge mi, Get squared and Temptation. kudos

2. FACE TO FACE (2BABA)
Ring the bell, Sound the Trump-et, cos the King is here. I don't have to write much on this legend as u all can scribble in the words. this album was, is and will remain a bomb. Shey na African queen we wan talk ni or is it keep on rocking abi na right here or u no holy pass even ifuana ibaga, and Ole. Abeg I don tire. Tubaba twale

most of us don't know the name of this album, but we know it songs. 1.jealousy, 2.Sakomo 3.judile, 4. Belinda, 5.Sade (not adekunle gold ooo) 6. yarinya and many more.
if you don't know this song's then you are one of the indomie generation. idris, eddy, and Tetuila gave us a masterpiece and initiated most of us into hip-hop music with 'yelen le yelen le yelen le oreke lewa omoge, I know I know someday o Ma ba mi dele oo'.

like I said up there, talk about it is one for the archives, The movie (M. I 2) was dope also but talk about it remain d best. money was my favorite track. fast money fast cash was also grrat
one of my favorites line was Ashawo na Ashawo no matter what u drive, don't spend ur life to buy money cos u can't spend money to buy life

Where did you put super Star, YBNL and the likes

Bros, those albums u stated were great also, but like I stated in the first line above, I only rank the best album of the artist so as to accommodate others. if not Tubaba will have 3 albums, Asa will have 2, Psquare will have 3, even faze will have two so also dbanj. Olamide best work till date is still d EYAN MAYWEATHER album while AYO by wizkid has more worldwide acclaim than superstar. hence the choices
